This is a remarkable feat of philosophical engineering: indubitable moral responsibility supports the embattled free will that is supposed to be providing the essential foundation for moral responsibility.

James Lenman maintains that:

. . . a central aspect of the free-will problem is the problem of explaining how it can even make sense to hold people morally responsible for what they do. To this extent, in this context, the most important sense of “free” is perhaps just this: someone is free insofar as they satisfy whatever conditions need to be satisfied for this to make sense with respect to them. (2006, 8)
